A case study was conducted, wherein an open-ended, semi-structured interview was used as tool of data collecting. The results were found as followed: 1. Daily contact and information from the other members of the family contribute to the Vietnamese spouses’s cognitive attitude about their husband. It turned out that all three Vietnamese spouses lacked confidence with their husband with Mental retardation. They found it difficult to interact with them or think about giving birth of the second baby because of the heritage consideration. For their better domestic adjustment some efforts should be made: First of all, the family members of the husband with Mental retardation should change their attitude, set up mutual trust and give Vietnamese spouses more support. Educational courses should be planned in the direction of hygeny, family planning and birth control for the Vietnamese spouses. And the social welfare unit should offer them consultation and coaching. 2. Main reasons for the transformation of emotional attitude of the Vietnamese spouses toward their husbands were the family’s support and their emotional adjustment. When their mood adjusted properly and the family of the husband show loving care of the Vietnamese spouse, these helped them build positive emotion to their husband.

Behind the phenomenon it is the question that how it happened and how to help them to meet the struggle through living with the Mental retarded husband.
